First Impressions: dhb women’s MTB kit 2013

Made of soft, fine merino wool, this base layer could make a good addition to any ride wardrobe. Categorized as M_200 merino, it’s a slightly heavier-weight option that aims to provide a bit more insulation in the colder months, without sacrificing breathability.

Merino wool is also renowned for it’s natural anti-microbial properties, meaning they get less whiffy after use than many man-made fibres.

The cut is a feminine and also what dhb called ‘form fit’ – essentially, it’s a close fitting top, which is what you want from a base layer. The wool has a fair bit of stretch.
